Intermittent reminder for the youngsters out there who see a scorecard or even a box score showing a pitcher throwing for 9 innings. This is what is known as a complete game.
Nowadays a thing to be celebrated but in the olden days it was the expectation for the pitcher, just another day at the office.

I saw an article discussing a fictitious game, All-Jewish team vs. All-Canadian team. The author gave the edge to Koufax.
Sure, for a single game it’s scary going against Koufax but over a 7-game series, I think that I’d rather have Jenkins.

I’m also curious how you would organize your rosters? Fun project idea. I’m having a lot of fun with this historical project. I’m considering bringing it back for a “year 2” or replaying an actual season. 2002 has been on my mind lately. I’ve got about a year to figure it out before I finish this one.
@scooter @RuthODay @olliethewobbly @AlexanderRaine7 @cardboardkarl @APBAreplay @YusufToropov
Using current players is cool and maybe you could draft historical players or even historical teams to fill out the rosters? You’d definitely need a way to keep from making teams too powerful or just providing some balance. How many teams are you looking at?

My league is called the WLB, World League Baseball. It has 40 teams and is easily the most ambitious project I’ve undertaken.

Regardless, I love it. I hope you’ll post results here when you start. My buddy Cliff had an idea for a league that could’ve happened if the Federal League had beat out the AL and NL and what modern baseball might look like if that happened. There’s all kinds of cool ideas out there. I love seeing them come out.

Sorry (not sorry) to interject here but I have a bone to pick with you over the claim that Mario Mendoza is a less-accomplished player.
It seems to me that he holds (or is at least tied; on Baseball-Reference.com I could not find any other players in this category, but am ready to be corrected) the career record in the category of LNA (“Lines” Named After), at 1.000.
Most other players, including the GOAT, Willie Mays and awesome Blue Jays catcher, Alejandro Kirk, have a number no greater than 0.000.
